Melbourne, VIC – 23rd July 2024 – For over 30 years, Metropolitan Roof Repairs has been a cornerstone of the Melbourne community, providing honest and reliable roofing services. But co-owner Tom Connor believes in doing more than just fixing leaks and replacing shingles, offering charitable roof repairs to a number of Melbourne’s historic churches.
“We come from a trade background of three generations,” says Tom. “Our roots are in this city, and we understand the importance of preserving its heritage. Melbourne’s churches are not just architectural gems, they’re woven into the fabric of our community. They serve as gathering places, cultural landmarks, and vital social hubs. By helping them maintain their roofs, we’re ensuring these community centres remain strong for generations to come.”
Restoring heritage buildings presents unique challenges. Metropolitan Roof Repairs’ team of experienced roofers not only possesses the expertise to handle complex repairs but also understand the importance of preserving the historical character of these structures. They’ve already assisted several iconic churches, including the Carmelite Monastery and Slovenian Catholic Mission in Kew, Mary Immaculate Catholic in Ivanhoe, St Andrew’s Uniting Church in Box Hill and St John The Evangelist Parish in Mitcham, ensuring these vital community centres retain their architectural integrity while receiving the necessary roof repairs.
“Metropolitan Roof Repairs was fantastic,” says Rev Dispin John, Parish Priest at St John The Evangelist Parish, Mitcham. “Their expertise and care in repairing our roof not only ensured the church’s structural integrity but also preserved its historical beauty. This allows us to continue serving the community as a place of worship and gathering for generations to come. We’re incredibly grateful for their generosity.”
Metropolitan Roof Repairs is passionate about giving back to the community that has supported their business for over three decades. This allows them to use their skills to preserve history but also empower these vital community centres to continue their important work.
“We strongly believe in giving back,” says Tom. “These churches offer a variety of programs and services that benefit everyone in Melbourne. They provide a welcoming space for people to connect, learn, and celebrate. By supporting them, we hope to inspire other businesses to get involved in their communities as well.”
